Healing the Emotional Wounds of Divorce: Bioenergetics & Trauma Release With Maura Eliza

Some stories are just hard to tell without breaking down.

For many women, divorce isn’t just an event. It’s a reckoning, a forced pause, a mirror held up to every belief we’ve ever had about love, safety, our bodies, and our worth. And when we don’t process that pain? It stays. It festers. It shows up in our hormones, our skin, our weight, and our autoimmune flares. It gets louder until we finally listen.

That’s why I brought on Maura Eliza—traditional naturopath and founder of The Vibrant Way—to talk about the overlooked connection between emotional trauma, divorce, and the physical symptoms that follow. Maura’s work is rooted in German New Medicine and bioenergetics, and she’s developed a method to help women release subconscious trauma (the stuff that never surfaces in talk therapy) and actually rewire how the body processes heartbreak and loss.

In this episode, we unpack how the body stores trauma from unexpected experiences (like betrayal or custody battles), why women often feel physical symptoms years after leaving toxic or unaligned relationships, and how to break the cycles that keep you attracting the same kinds of partners. We also talk about nervous system healing, reclaiming your feminine energy, and how to find peace and even joy while being single.
